Good thing you weren’t with us at Roy’s Liquors last year. They were asking $150 for a bottle...and Homer bought one!

Blanton’s at $75 isn’t too far off from what they charge here but for a little bit more (...depends on the dollar-yen exchange rate...), the Straight From The Barrel is a much better value. ‘Coarse, you can’t get it in the States so that kinda fuggs that notion up. 😣

Patience is a virtue..... just got a call for The Weller 12 allocation at my local in Texas. Got a bottle for $29.99!

The mrs was nice enough to go pick it up. I don't get back til October. Be ready for my birthday!

I told Ron that apparently Specs had the allocation delivered but seeing that the fugger lives out in BFE he said he wasn't driving a 3 hour round trip lol

Youngest cub texted me from a shop in northwest Georgia last night to see if I wanted purchase some overpriced bourbon.
Blanton's $120, Weller 12 $220 and Weller Antique $120
Easy decision to pass.

diabetes...I'll have a drink or two, on rare and special occasions, but no longer indulge regularly...

I'm afraid I am not able to do this in moderation, so I even avoid moderation...

Hey Spey, I have yet to “weigh in” (ha Frank!) on the weight loss thread, but I’ve been checking on things and it looks like you’re killing it. Way to go brother!

So my friends father in law passed away and my buddy found two bottles of "old Bentley bourbon whiskey" aged 6 years. Bottle in 1972. I can not find anything online about these. He tells that his father in law like finer things. Not sure about this though and why he kept them sealed. Anyone know anything on it?

What I can find is that currently it's bottled by Barton at Sazerac. You might inquire with them, they typically have historians/historical reference.

There were a ton of bourbon brands back in the day. Most went away through the 70's and 80's Some are being resurrected but...........................

Thanks, I will let him know. Hopefully it's worth something for him. And maybe I will grab one of the bottles from him.

If nothing else, it's a a time capsule of bourbon history, and a tie to his FIL.

That is what my Jim Beam is to me, a link to my old CQB partner who is no longer with us. I can't have a Beam without thinking of Chaz. Cigars and bourbon are about friends. They are to me anyway. 😄

What bourbon do I prefer with my cigars? Let me count the ways.

I have much more bourbon experience, my cigar awareness is going to have to catch up. 😇

My wife is so tolerant. 🙏
